tary. After appointing committees on

Committee on credentials and permanent
organization reported as usual. Commit
tee on rules reported that the convention
would be governed by the same rules as in
previous years. The committee OF reso-
tions reported the following, which re-
port was adopted:
Resoyped, That the Democrats of salem conn
ty reafirrn their allegiance to the principles
and policy of the party rs laid down in the ma
tional platform of 1884 and the state platform
of 1856.
ResoLUed, That We cordially approve of the
official conduct of Surrogate George Il. Morri-
son, Sheriff Clinton Kelly and Asscmblyman
wm. Newell, feeling sure that the citizens of
salem county will join us in saying "WelI
bphCi 5NtN "a" ANA- "HN W
pledge the people that the candidates this day
nominated will be rs careful of their official
duties. as regardful OF the rights of the peopl e
and as faithful, honest and energetic in their
Official conduct as have been their predeces-
sors.
Resofred, That We particularly approve of
the action Of Assemblyman Newell in his
course as member of the Assembly Committee
on Fisheries, and demand that his successor
be equally as energetic in securing to New
Jersey fishermen perfect freedom in fishing
in the waters OF this State and in streams that
may serve as boundaries between New Jersey
and sister states. The right to lake fish from
running waters is an inherent right, and we
declare that no state has power to shut OF any
citizen of this county from fishing in II
waters at proper seasons. We urge upon the
senator and Assenblyman this day nom
mated, il elected, to urge our Governor
and Attorney General to secure at once a
settlement of the dispute between this
state and Delaware to the end that our fisher
men may not be continually harassed ana
hindered from making a~iiving, and that the
thousands of dollars they have invested in the
business may be saved from depreciation and
possible ruin. we urge further that our sen
ator and Assemblyman watch with vigiiant
eye all proposed legislation in regard 10 gill

disagreement between the managers of the
Camden and Atlantic and West Jersey

This story Comes 10 as From Elmer.

Pat MaIOney's variety troupe played
there on Saturday night to a full house.
On Sunday Pat and his wife attended
church, and the preacher, whether aware
of their presence or not we did not hear.
took occasion to pitch into the show bust
ness pretty strongly. Mrs. Maloney did
not relish it, and just after the benediction
she addressed the preacher and defended
the show folks, saying that if the reverend
critic knew as much about the people he
criticised as she did, he might modify his
views. As for her, the Lord had given her
a talent for singing and she ayailed herself
of it to gain an honest livelihood. Pre-
sumably he had likewise given to her elor-
zeal friend a talent for preaching, which
he turned to like use.

prcponderance OF Sex IN chestnuts.

JIM. Cassidy, of Camden, has forwarded
to the Phila. Record office a branch from a
chestnut tree thickly clustered with chest
nut burrs, which is considered quite a
curiosity, such specimens being rare. 1t
came from Pitman Grove. According to
the report of Mr.. Thomas Meehan to the
Academy of Natural Sciences the stami-
nate flowers often appear on the trees be-
fore the pistillate flowers, and imperfect
nutrition will sometimes cause a change of
sex of the flowers. This view, however,
is disputed by other scientists, who claim
that the imperfect chestnuts are the result
of lack of fertilization Of the female flow
ers. The nuts within the burrs were very
small and without germs, and no record
can be obtained Of such an occurrence in
any other locality in this country. The
appearance of the branch sent to the
Record Office is very similar to a cluster of
chincapins Ga species of ehestnut), but the
nut is a chestnut, though small and i'm
perfect. This freak has given botanists a
subject for discussion, and as yet it is not
entirely understood.

Echoes from Elmer.

While looking over your newsy paper
last week | came across an article on
Thirty minutes in Elmer and have no
doubt that many of your readers were
sorry that the conductor called ''all
aboard" so soon, and did not give your
reporter longer time to view our growing
town. We regret that he did not have
time to take a peep into the glass works,
which are now in blast and running with
a better financial outlook than heretofore.
The works run eight pots, which turn out
about 600 rollers to a blowing, and as the
season advances that number will be in
creased. At present the average shipment
is about 100 boxes per day.
The W. C. T. L. of Elmer nave been
very active in their work and a very in
teresting time was had at the meeting on
Thursday of last week, the occasion of the
annual convention of the county unions.
Our Elmer ladies took upon themselves
the task of entertaining the visitors from
a distance and the tables groaned with the
weight of the many good things spread on
them. We wish this organization success
in it's grand undertaking. RIP.

Chestnurs in season.

The first chestnuts of the present sea-
sons crop began to arrive in this locality
last week. Wholesale dealers in the nut
say that the reports they have received are
favorable to a large crop this year. Last
year it was almost a total failure in all
sections of the country, and what few
were produced were small and wormy.
Those arriving now are said to be of good
size and chiefly sound. Last week they
sold at $3.50 a bushcl. but in view of large
receipts anticipated this week dealers say
they expect the price will fall to about 81
a bushel.
